The video below is of Evan and I cutting the cake at our baby shower to find out the gender of our babies. So glad we have this on video, it was such an amazing experience!
Enjoy!
(I had written this post a couple of months ago - and true to it's title, my "mom brain" forgot to edit and post it. So now you get it a couple months delayed) My best friend flew into town this past weekend to spend some time alone with me a few weeks before my wedding. We had planned to run a 5k, stay in a hotel one night so I could try to get out of the mom-zone-frame-of-mind, eat good food, drink good drinks and maybe smoke some shisha. She got into town on a Friday. That night, we packed up and headed to the hotel. When checking in, the woman looked up my name, she gave this head tilt and said, "hmm, you're not in our system." I said "Yes we are, look I have my confirmation here." she says, "oh yes maam, that confirmation is for tomorrow night." I said "No, for tonight." she says "Look, right here, it says for tomorrow night." Feeling like a first class idiot, I say "My mistake, do you have anythi...
This is my first full week of not being a student, not being an intern, not being an employee,but rather taking care of myself and being a stay at home pregnant woman. I have cleaned the apartment about 25 times (and it still doesn't feel clean enough). I go for walks, groom the cats, grocery shop, cook, read books, stretch, volunteer with the twins group we belong to, and meet friends for coffee dates. Part of me is loving the free time, and part of me is going crazy. Being busy with one, if not two jobs, plus going to school is manageable and for me and is what I know how to do. This "relaxation" as they call it, is new territory for me, I'm almost afraid to enjoy it, and I'm sure Evan is dreading the day I say "Babe, I'm not sure I want to go back to work, maybe I should stay home with the kids." Don't worry, it's not in my blood to not be working :) One of the things I am enjoying the most is reading a book called Trauma Stewardsh...
Happy Memorial Weekend! As I write this post, I'm listening to a mix cd that our friend Gabe gave to us of classical music that is supposed to be good for the little ones to listen to. I'm trying to create baby genius's of course. At this point, the babies can hear and can open their eyes. They probably can't see anything because of how dark it is in there, but their eyes can open and close. They are growing hair, and should be passing the two pound mark. I have an ultrasound this coming week, so hopefully we'll get another good look at them! Friday night Evan and I went to the Giants vs. Rockies game. My friend Sarah gave us her bleacher seats, so we got to sit in the outfield which was a fun change from our usual seats. Rockies hit a home run just a couple of rows below us, and after the chaos of drunk people fighting over the ball, they ended up throwing it back to the field anyway which is the common practice when the opposing team hits a...
